               The               statistics               seem               to               show               that               the               average               earnings               among               individuals'               increases               with               the               amount               of               education               they               pursue,               but               does               this               make               it               right               for               everyone?
               My               mother               always               encouraged               me               to               pursue               a               college               degree.

I               started               out               with               some               direction,               but               somewhere               along               the               lines               lost               what               I               wanted               to               do.

As               a               result,               I               spent               seven               years               working               towards               a               four               year               degree.

In               the               end,               I               was               fortunate               enough               to               eventually               (after               a               lay               off               and               some               time               at               a               low               paying               job)               land               a               job               in               my               field               that               paid               something               somewhat               close               to               what               all               those               universities               advertised               as               "starting               pay"               for               my               major.
               The               Problem
               After               spending               four-and-a-half               years               working               on               a               General               Studies               degree,               since               everyone               said               "oh,               it               doesn't               matter               what               your               major               is,"               I               spent               a               few               years               working               before               realizing               what               I               really               wanted               to               do.

By               the               time               I               completed               the               degree               I               needed,               I               owed               a               lot               in               student               loans.

Add               this               to               a               crashing               economy               and               a               lay               off               and               now               I               have               credit               card               debt               on               top               of               student               loans.
               Too               many               other               young               people               were               told               the               same               thing,               that               you               need               a               college               degree               in               order               to               succeed               and               the               cost               of               the               degree               was               just               an               investment               that               would               provide               excellent               returns               to               justify               it.

Those               investments               can               differ               drastically               too.

A               private               school               can               easily               cost               two               to               three               times               what               a               public               university               costs.
               The               Solution
               While               schools               promise               lucrative               earnings               and               high               employment               rates,               it's               always               best               to               consider               your               own               individual               situation.

With               an               unstable               economy               that               has               higher               than               normal               unemployment               rates,               college               may               not               be               a               good               idea               for               everyone,               at               least               for               right               now.

If               you               know               what               you               want               to               do,               and               a               college               degree               is               required,               and               you               won't               owe               an               excessive               amount               compared               to               true               starting               wages               (talking               to               people               in               your               field               of               interest               in               your               location               is               always               the               best               way               to               find               out),               then               go               for               it.

If               your               education               is               paid               for               if               you               go               right               now,               go               for               it.

If               you               have               to               take               out               loans               or               spend               savings               and               aren't               sure               what               you               want,               I               would               strongly               advise               taking               the               time               to               figure               it               out               first.

Enjoy               life.

Travel.

Define               who               you               are,               then               become               who               you               want               to               be.
               If               you               really               want               to               get               a               degree,               but               don't               have               any               savings               and               don't               qualify               for               grants               (i.e.

free               money,               no               repayment               necessary),               check               your               local               community               college.

Many               of               them               offer               associate's               degrees               that               transfer               to               state               universities.

This               can               drastically               cut               your               cost               and               still               keep               you               on               track               towards               a               bachelor's               degree.
               If               your               plans               don't               include               a               degree,               don't               feel               the               pressure               to               get               one               just               to               be               accepted.

$40,000               (assuming               $10,000               in               loans               taken               out               each               of               the               four               years)               can               definitely               put               a               hold               on               major               life               plans…like               marriage,               buying               home,               starting               a               family,               or               just               doing               whatever               you               want.
